Toss me into the "I liked it :)" category please.

I deleted CDL 07-08 because I knew I'd never watch it again, besides from the bad singing almost throughout it was also incredibly dull. I hope this is not what we should expect from future Ayu performances!

the concert was simple...i think she sing very well the ballads...the problems star with the uptempo songs.

(i don't like when she was singing the part : "ladies ni-i-i-i-ight" xD)
princess and the other woman make a terrible performance for the "desicion" Refrain

when ayu was singing boys and girls, I thought "please, ayu just leave the audience finish the song"

i love ayu..and many years ago When I saw her using that headphone, I was very surprised, here in my country, if you are using that things you are not a serious singer.

i would like that ayu stopping to use that headphone in her ear and learning to sing like a complete singer, with just a michrophone and her very good one ear

^ Um, the headset allows the singer to dance, which ayu needs sometimes. Why that makes her a less serious singer, I fail to see. The sound is just as clear through a headset as a regular microphone.

Her voice was ROUGH for most of it, MY ALL in particular. I thought it wa sbetter than last year's CDL though.

i deleted cdl 07 - 08 after watching it once. not becuz it was so bad but i needed a hardisk space. then i thought, nahh i aint gonna watch this concert again n shoosh deleted it.
well yea, i like her singing the ballads, especially together when.. untitled, rainbow.. but some others were too off keys especially SURREAL. goDD that was dreadful. but anyways her CDLs are always like that =)

What? The comments I read said this one was better than last years which was a big production. I'm gonna wait to watch until the DVD version comes out or it won't be as good.

i think it was good but CDL 06-07 is still my favorite. her voice could have been better, but also have to cut her some slack because shes still getting adapted to singing with a deaf ear. the performances were great up until it reached the encore, then it got sorta boring. i think the choice of songs in the encore were so-so and i think thas what made me less interested.

the ladies night performance was amazing, probably the one performance that really stands out from the rest. the stage was great and the dancers were awesome. the costumes were so-so imo.

Yeah, SunshineSlayer's seen this firsthand, when Ayu's alterna-ball malfunctioned at AT06 and she had to do is this LOVE? and (m)u in the ball. :O

though ayu din change much clothes for this cdl and she's quite off in surreal...but overall she still sang pretty well :yes

I have the TV version on my computer and i find that it is much more enjoyable compared to previous years.

I love alot of the vocals, especially in fated, glitter and together when. Although for some of the outfits i have to say they were a bit, off :P

I've only seen the STEP you prerformance and i thought she did really well. she sounded really good... i thought the worst CDL was 06-07. i dunno why... she wasn't at her best vocally and it was just kinda boring...

I lived the performance, and I also thought some people were going a bit overboard with how bad they thought she was singing. I thought it was beautiful, not perfect but I enjoyed it anyhow

sorry guys, you know, I respect all of you very much, becuase we love to ayu.
but I cannot stop being ironic and say; That many of you are more deaf than ayumi
that concert was 80% terrible, Shameful and Objectively "out of tune"

how someone with some good taste in music and with a young ear can say this concert was enjoyable?
is was a torture for any music Listener and for any ayu lover like me or all of us.

i think ayu need To train more than ever.
the good performence of "Step you" or "together when..." were darkened
by the rest of the night(mare)

You do know she's completely deaf in her left ear now and is still training herself to learn to sing with just one ear, right?

i know that..and how she said...that's not an excuse
i give all my heart to ayu, my night prays and love....but never mercy..as a profesional she don't deserve it...
and that public CDL show..was terrible speaking about her vocal performance

So what if her vocals were somewhat off? At CDLs, they're almost always off because she's running on like 5 hours of sleep :|

Umm hard thing to discuss. In my personal opinion if her both ears were good the whole concert would be really great. I think she just needs to practice more with her only one ear, get used to it and just start to control her voice with one ear. I'm sure that during the upcoming Arena she will sound very well :)

I don't mind if the vocals are off-key/bad because if i can see her in action then w/e lol.

Well then, I must be blind, or deaf *bleah* but I actually liked the show, well, specific performances. SHe's trying her best for her fans :/
